The thing about Europe is that it's large and diverse, you can't generalize by saying "in Europe".

There are a lot of pickpockets in Paris, I've never been victim of it but I've witnessed it several time. Never saw that in the 5 years I lived in Tokyo or the 3 years I lived in SF.

You always get free tapwater in France (that's the law) but not in Poland.

I agree in that I would recommend anyone to visit Europe - even European should visit other European countries! But it's important to remember that Europe is made of several very, very different countries.

You are totally right. It would have made my response much more complicated to include all the differences though.

I would still argue all I wrote above applies generally to all countries in the EU. Could not reproduce your tapwater experience in Poland so ymmv
